Hissing sound coming from fuel tank

Hey Scottie,

I have a 2008 Mazda 3i.  When the gas goes below 1/2 a tank there is a hissing sound that comes from the gas tank.  Is this a sign of a failing fuel pump?  The OE pumps run about 1k from the Stealers.  For now,  I am getting by by filling up every 100 miles.

Generally, hissing sound to some kind of vacuum like trying new gas cap and check the evap lines to see if there's a problem with the evap system that takes vapor from the gas tank. Pumps generally don't hiss when they go bad. They hum as they're bearings where
